Featured Sterling What Am I?

Hi folks, 2 Birks sterling pieces that have the same trim around them, so I assume they were part of a set (but maybe not). The coaster thing (that is what I've used it for) I've had for years, the urn I picked up a little while ago. The urn is just under 3"H and has the date letter for 1943, the coaster is 3 1/4" across. While toothpicks will fit in the urn, I think it is a cigarette holder, (they also fit inside) but what would the coaster thing be then? Not an ashtray as it has no indents for a cigarette, I can't see matches laying on it and there is no striker on it, but maybe? Or maybe I'm overthinking this and they don't go together, lol.
any information appreciated
thanks for looking

 

Love it CX. I found a little sterling Birks bowl a few years ago.
"Henry Birks & Sons, a premier Canadian high-end jeweler founded in Montreal in 1879. Often compared to Tiffany & Co. for its craftsmanship."
Really good stuff.
The flagship store in Montreal-

 

Id guess smoking set.

 

great, thanks johnny so maybe I'm on the right track for them belonging together.

thanks bosko would be nice if they got Tiffany prices, lol

 

Yep. If memory serves... It's a little individual cigarette holder and ashtray. The kind of thing a hostess would provide at each place on a bridge table. Very possibly a wedding present with the bride's new surname monogram.

Other maker, but described as "Sterling Silver Cup and Saucer for cigarettes 1890"

Wonder where the seller got the 1890 date? That's not an 1890 logo. (And wonder how the seller came up with an asking price of $999.99!)

I was wondering the same thing when I saw that logo
